MP3 player ?'s....i need suggestions

[maxamillion]

Hey, Im thinking about getting an MP3 player/ I Pod , I dont even know the difference. Anyways, Im looking for something that is light and I can listen to while exercising and practicing sports. I would like it to hold around 100 or more songs.

I heard you can copy songs off of radio stations on some of these. Is this true, if so how does it work? Is this kind alot more money?

Im not to knowledgable on MP3's as you can tell. What do you guys suggest I look into? I dont want to spend a fortune.

Thanks-Max

i have a creative. i think it is 8 gb. it can record off the radio and is compatible with napster. it works very well. there is a much cheaper version, and i am sure it has the same features.

yeah thats what i have im pretty sure, i have the 2 gig version, and i rember it being like $100 less than the ipod with the same memory and the ipod didnt have radio...

But the iPod is better.

the ipod has good compatability and a ton of accessories..

micro$oft is making a new one and so are a couple of others.. price battles are coming soon..


dont get something thats less than 1 gig, the more memory the better, especially if your going to watch movies..

if you get one with video, make sure it has compatability with mov, mpeg and as many other formats as possible.. more the better..

for me, something with upgradable memory would be best..

im looking for something that uses SD memory cards, so i can switch them out between my camera and mp3 player.. wipe off songs and replace it with video or still shots on the fly..
SD cards are cheap, 50X 2gig modules for about $35..

I have a dell diddy which I like alot, has fm tuner and is very small, and the dell mini jukebox, which is like the size of an ipod.

i have a ipod nano and its always been good, battary lasts long, tons of space, fast, plus the games are fun in class :D (they come with small games on them :P)

ipod is just a brand name

and they are expensive just because the name "IPOD"

just get a phillips :)

Iaudio X5

I have one and it is by far the best player out there. I've had Ipods, Irivers and Creatives and they don't even compare. Plus I get about 35 hours on one charge.

My favorite feature is the line in recording. I can hook up a mic and record live shows or band practice w/ a pretty good quality. it also records fm radio stations.

Like honda or suzuki:rolleyes: Brand matters. The ipod is very high quality. I have 6009 songs on mine, I haven't even heard half of them yet:devil: I put it on shuffle and have a commercial free radio station. My friend has gone thorugh two RCA players in the time I've had my Ipod.
